PARKER

Parker Guitars was an American manufacturer of electric and acoustic guitars and basses, founded by luthier Ken Parker in 1993. Parker guitars were distinguished for their characteristic light weight and the use of composite materials. Parker’s most famous guitar was the Fly model, an electric guitar made with a slim, lightweight core of real wood (spruce, poplar, basswood, etc.) reinforced with a carbon fiber exoskeleton to provide unparalleled rigidity for a solid body electric guitar.
